▎ 摘　　要

Vinyltriethoxysilane (VTES) was grafted onto natural rubber (NR) in latex form, using potassium persulfate (KPS) as initiator. The VTES grafted NR (NR-g-VTES) was then further reinforced with graphene oxide (GO) by a mechanical mixing method with different GO loadings to get the rubber composite (GO/NR-g-VTES). The NR-g-VTES was characterized and confirmed by attenuated total teflectance-Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR). The effect of GO content on the curing characteristics and resulting mechanical properties of the GO/NR-g-VTES were studied and compared with neat NR filled with GO (NR/GO). The maximum and minimum torque and the tensile and tear strength of the NR-g-VTES/GO composites were higher than that of NR/GO. The samples containing low GO concentration showed maximum torque and tensile and tear strength. Dynamic mechanical analysis showed that the interaction between GO and NR-g-VTES was better than that of the GO-reinforced NR.
